gummy grins for the win

So…I have puppy and dog experts as blog readers! Thank you for all your tips yesterday. The number one suggestion was for the bell system – I’ll be trying that immediately. Thank you all!

I’m a really big fan of baby teeth. I’m sure some of you parents can relate…when adult teeth come in, they look so huge and out of place. I somehow always convince my kids to let me take pictures right before they lose their first teeth. I took a whole series of my six year old (he was five back then) before he lost his first tooth.

Ahh, I do miss that baby tooth grin…

10.14teethy-01He told me yesterday that his first adult teeth are popping through his gums. I asked him if he’d let me capture a few of his gummy grin. He is so goofy. Not a single ‘normal smile’, which is actually very normal for him. Goodness, this guy brings the joy.10.14teethy-0310.14teethy-0410.14teethy-02Of course, he had to demonstrate how his tongue fits through the gap.10.14teethy-05I told him a joke. It might have involved purple, polka dots and his oldest brother….10.14teethy-06He is so awesome. Gummy grins for the win!

I used my 85mm f/1.8 for all of these with the aperture set at f/2.0. It is my favorite lens, but hard to use inside in tight spaces.
